David Letterman has a new show coming to Netflix

Having ended his 33-year career back in May 2015, stepping down as host of "Late Night" and "The Late Show", it's now been unveiled that 70-year-old David Letterman has a new show coming to Netflix.

The as-yet-untitled series is set to debut sometime in 2018 and will feature "in-depth conversations with extraordinary people, and in-the-field segments expressing his curiosity and humor." In a statement, Letterman said:

"I feel excited and lucky to be working on this project for Netflix. Here’s what I have learned, if you retire to spend more time with your family, check with your family first."
